(37,648 posts)But the hay wagon is full. The bandwagon is full of wannabes and hangers-on. He's toast. Like Gillibrand is toast. Sometimes the one who is toast is the last one to recognize it.
Northam now says that that is not him in the picture. He darkened his face for a Michael Jackson dance contest, instead. That is a big goofup, if it really is not him, because that's not what he said at first.
It's horrible to blacken the face. The 1980s is pretty late an era to be doing that. I don't remember anyone doing that here in Louisiana.
There's no indication he's a racist, just that he did something stupid as a 25 year old. I view this as a matter for Virginia. He is a legally elected governor of a state. Not a SCT justice. Not a Senator. A Governor.
But now that the hay wagon is full, he has no chance. When a politician has that in his past, he really needs to get that behind him at the beginning. Otherwise, this can happen.
